> How are they doing now with Flash? Any record of users complaining with Firefox for a Flash bug?

Uh yes? Users complain about the browser when Flash crashes it, why do you think Firefox finally moved Flash to an external process, following the lead of Chrome and Safari (and MSIE?). Sure Flash having no 64b support plays a role, but it's not like most users realize it when Flash is involved in making their browser burst in flames or crawl to a halt.

Sorry, I meant security bug, not crashing in flames bug. :)

Often you hear of some security flaw in this or that program that requires Microsoft or Apple to patch the OS. When those happen, are people demanding a fix from Microsoft/Apple or Mozilla?
